[PRC] LREC-004 | Schedule ticket export as XLS => Save it in GDrive

1 Overview

This scheduled recipe exports ticket data as an Excel file (.xls) from PlanRadar and saves it into a designated Google Drive folder. It’s best for recurring data exports to external platforms.

2 Access & Prerequisites

Ensure the following before use:

• PlanRadar and Google Drive connectors are authorised

• A valid export template is available in the source project

• A target folder is prepared in Google Drive
